Throughout the course of this year we have, and will continue to, discuss many people, places, and events that are very important in American History. Many of these people, places, and events are commemorated in America through monuments or landmarks. We often view these monuments/landmarks without truly understanding them. Why were they constructed? Are there any symbols? Who created the monument/landmark and why that particular monument/landmark?
